Roma 2:5-6

2:5 But because of your stubbornness ¹  and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourselves in the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed! ²  2:6 He ³  will reward ⁴  each one according to his works: ⁵ 

Roma 2:8

2:8 but ⁶  wrath and anger to those who live in selfish ambition ⁷  and do not obey the truth but follow ⁸  unrighteousness.

Roma 3:5-6

3:5 But if our unrighteousness demonstrates ⁹  the righteousness of God, what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is he? ¹⁰  (I am speaking in human terms.) ¹¹  3:6 Absolutely not! For otherwise how could God judge the world?

[2:5]  ¹ tn Grk “hardness.” Concerning this imagery, see Jer 4:4; Ezek 3:7; 1 En. 16:3.

[2:5]  ² tn Grk “in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God.”

[2:6]  ³ tn Grk “who.” The relative pronoun was converted to a personal pronoun and, because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[2:6]  ⁴ tn Or “will render,” “will recompense.” In this context Paul is setting up a hypothetical situation, not stating that salvation is by works.

[2:6]  ⁵ sn A quotation from Ps 62:12; Prov 24:12; a close approximation to Matt 16:27.

[2:8]  ⁶ tn This contrast is clearer and stronger in Greek than can be easily expressed in English.

[2:8]  ⁷ tn Grk “those who [are] from selfish ambition.”

[2:8]  ⁸ tn Grk “are persuaded by, obey.”

[3:5]  ⁹ tn Or “shows clearly.”

[3:5]  ¹⁰ tn Grk “That God is not unjust to inflict wrath, is he?”

[3:5]  ¹¹ sn The same expression occurs in Gal 3:15, and similar phrases in Rom 6:19 and 1 Cor 9:8.
